  2. Digest access authentication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication

    The table of HA1 values must therefore be protected as securely as a file containing plaintext passwords. [12] Digest access authentication prevents the use of a strong password hash (such as bcrypt) when storing passwords (since either the password, or the digested username, realm and password must be recoverable)

  3. Password Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_authentication...

    Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is a password-based authentication protocol used by Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) to validate users. [1] PAP is specified in RFC 1334. Almost all network operating systems support PPP with PAP, as do most network access servers. PAP is also used in PPPoE, for authenticating DSL users.

    For example, the client uploads an image as image/svg+xml, but the server requires that images use a different format. 416 Range Not Satisfiable The client has asked for a portion of the file (byte serving), but the server cannot supply that portion. For example, if the client asked for a part of the file that lies beyond the end of the file.

  6. Password strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

    Systems that use passwords for authentication must have some way to check any password entered to gain access. If the valid passwords are simply stored in a system file or database, an attacker who gains sufficient access to the system will obtain all user passwords, giving the attacker access to all accounts on the attacked system and possibly other systems where users employ the same or ...

  7. bcrypt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcrypt

    The input to the bcrypt function is the password string (up to 72 bytes), a numeric cost, and a 16-byte (128-bit) salt value. The salt is typically a random value.

  8. HTTP ETag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_ETag

    Strong ETags permit the caching and reassembly of partial responses, as with byte-range requests. A weakly validating ETag match only indicates that the two representations are semantically equivalent , meaning that for practical purposes they are interchangeable and that cached copies can be used.

  9. MD5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5

    MD5 processes a variable-length message into a fixed-length output of 128 bits. The input message is broken up into chunks of 512-bit blocks (sixteen 32-bit words); the message is padded so that its length is divisible by 512. The padding works as follows: first, a single bit, 1, is appended to the end of the message.
